My first reaction was, well... I don't know what to think. Most likely, the look will grow on me, I just hope it won't become a huge trend and I hope the Celtics never do something like this. Obviously, they are doing it to sell more jerseys in Europe and other regions, where many people like to wear soccer shirts/jerseys. Smart move by the Dubs organization and Adidas.

If you had a long game, an overtime maybe, wouldn't your sweat just make the sleeves really irritating and mess with your shot?

I haven't seen "live" the new material they make these jerseys from, but I know it's much different than the old material. Anyone who has ever played in a real basketball jersey knows how sweaty they get during a game

I run long distances and those tight compression style shirts don't really have that affect. Regular old T-shirts do, but not the compression wear. The shirts appear to be the compression style stuff so I suspect that won't be an issue.
